I have no problem with free trade with other 1st world nations, if we can’t compete with them then the problem is with us, not them.

As for less developed nations and communists, we should have some strong trade barriers. There is no benefit to competing with workers who get paid a pittance a day.

I hear you, but there are quite a few on this board that would say we need to impose a tariff on foreign-made cars [and everything else] so everyone is "forced" to buy American and we can return to the supposed glory days of the 1950's.

They insist that free trade is not about the individual. But your wife's purchase proves them wrong.
